Shaker pint draft at the Oakley location of Dewey's Pizza in Cincinnati, Ohio. The pour is clear golden ruby, with a smallish light tan head. The aroma is cracker malt, with a bit of earth peat moss. The taste is the softly sweet cracker malt, earthy peat, and a nice soft roast and mineral. The palate is medium bodied with soft carbonation and the mineral peatish finish. The bartender described this as an Irish Scotch ale sort of thing which was a perfect description. Nice one.
